    Thats amazing odd's for what is essentially a 3 horse race. I'll be putting something on it if those odds are still available based purely on value, but im not expecting anything back.

    Can anybody remember what the odds were before last years final?

    I've stuck AŁ5 on, AŁ105 returns and and id only lose AŁ5, so I'll either be buzzing or not bothered as I'm not expecting anything.

    Yeah mate, we were 17/2-10/1 anywhere in between there to beat them in the final last season

    So we're getting double the odd's for a Championship team full of confidence compared to a Prem team struggling against relegation.

    Brain says we have no hope in hell, but my heart says it's football and that one piece of luck that can come your way means it's got to be worth a couple of pennies.

    Either way, whatever the result, I can see this ranking as one of the top away trips in recent years.

    I'm not expecting anything as the league is number 1 priority for me, city away in the quarters of the fa cup is just a very welcomed distraction

    Jordi to be first scorer & latics to win 2-1 was 400/1.

    In that case, Fred was ripping you off!

    Man City v Wigan aii ScorecastJordi Gomez / Wigan 1-0 @ 421.00Won / LostAi5.00Ai0.00
    That was with Will Hill. Pays to shop around.
    Then again in this case, rather it doesn't pay as we both picked up ball all.

    Didn't stop me getting a wee bit exited the whole while it was 0-1 though!

    Didn't take the 20/1 as I couldn't be ****d opening another on line account. I did however try a fiver with another on line bookie at 18/1, was I bothered when that 2nd went in ... No

    **** you!

    Winning a quid or two on the result and progressing in the completion softened the blow somewhat though it has to be said.

    Aside from the financial gain, I quite enjoyed Monday morning when a call out engineer came to our site. He's a City fan who had promised me a few weeks back that they would get their revenge from the final. Double figure scores had been boasted about.

    Said he'd tried every trick in the book to avoid having to come out himself, but couldn't get out of it. I didn't gloat.






    Much.
